SCOTT SCALE 3 GEOMETRY/TECHNICAL DATA SCALE 3 700 SCALE CONCEPT From the Carbon fiber to the manufacturing process to the final result- the new Scale has been completely redesigned. The result: a new benchmark for race hardtail frames. The Scale RC 700 SL weighs in at only 849 grams. The incredible lightweight frame characteristics and two dedicated frame platforms for 1x and 2x drivetrains lift the standard of hardtail mountain bikes to a new level. A mix of high-end carbon fibers has been used on all Scale Carbon frames in order to achieve incredible results. The HMX-SL frame utilizes MR70, YS60 and HR40 Carbon fibers. HR40 is a strong and light filament which, used together with MR70 fibers, attains unachieved tensile strength values. In order to achieve the set stiffness targets, YS60 layers are added into the lay-up. After choosing the Carbon fibers, the engineers are using specific tools, like FEA software, to map out the carbon lay-up. Thanks to SCOTT's proprietary EvoLap-Technology, different forces can be applied on a virtual model and the frame construction is adjusted accordingly. The SDS2 technology achieves comfort in carbon frames without adding parts or sacrificing stiffness characteristics. In order to achieve this, the engineers use different tube shapes in combination with a strategic alignment of the carbon fibers to avoid any undesired flex that can impair performance. The Boost standard improves wheel stiffness and allows for increased tire clearance. The new Scale frame has been developed around the Boost standard in order to maximize the advantages of the new norm. The three millimeter outboard chain ring adds clearance to the chainstay area allowing for a significant increase of the chainstay cross-section for both, the 1x and 2x models. This offers more possibilities to find the right position of the rear wheel in the frame in order to achieve improved structural stiffness. IMPORTANT Only a bottle with 0.55L capacity will have the clearance to fit a small frame Seatpost Diameter 31.6mm Seattube clamp 34.9 Headset bearings: 51.9x40x8 45 x 45 / 41.8x30.5x8 45 x 45 Fork travel 100mm BB housing BB PF92 Front derailleur Shimano high direct mount side swing (none RC models only) Additional parts needed Chainring size 38T max Max tyre width 2.3/57mm Please note: Tire sizes often vary from brand to brand. Ensure the tire clearance is adequate when replacing your tires! The new Scale is available in two different versions. The HMX-SL and HMX frames are optimized for 1x drivetrains only and therefore dedicated to race-oriented riders. The HMF line-up is designed and optimized around a double chain ring setup. These models can, however, accommodate a single chainring configuration. On the new Scale introduce a specific brake mount adapter which is linked directly to the chainstay and thru-axle in order to increase stiffness. Routing the cables internally avoids bulky external hardware and looks cleaner. Due to the improved protection, the cables have a longer lifetime. The new Scale chain guide weighs in at just 23 grams, is easy to assemble thanks to a smart mounting system and can accommodate 30T to 36T chainrings. The new Scale dropouts are designed to be integrated on the thru-axle system thanks to a hollow tube design that allows a simple and lightweight structure.

SCOTT Scale 3 is designed around the BOOST platform so many of the fitted parts: cranks/ wheels/dropouts/forks differ from traditional cycle parts. Always consult your authorized SCOTT dealer for advice on replacing or repairing any part of your SCOTT bike! RIDELOC This section refers to SCOTT bikes fitted with the RIDELOC system. For all non-rideloc systems please refer to the specific fork manual for your setup. The RIDELOC system offers the rider full control of all 3 modes of the front forks with a single lever, the position and function of the RIDELOC lever make for effortless control over the forks function. The 3 basic functions of RIDELOC system are: Climb-out Mode Traction Mode Descent Mode There are 3 positions of the RIDELOC remote lever. 1. CLIMB MODE: The fork is nearly locked; climbing on asphalt roads is now possible with little power loss. A simultaneous blow-off-system prevents the forks being damaged in case the rider does not open the system while crossing obstacles. 2. TRACTION MODE: Altering the dampening of the forks will result in climbing with reduced bobbing and still offers optimum control of the front wheel. 3. DESCENT MODE: Full travel of the fork.

It is possible to change the RIDELOC lever to the underbar option if the bikes gears have been changed to X1 system, a new alternative lever will be required for this adjustment; please consult your local SCOTT dealer for more information on obtaining the correct lever for your bike. You will find the following positions on the remote lever: 06 07
BASIC SET-UP OF FORKS Recommended tools for the shock setup: The SAG tool that came with your bike. *Fox forks only A shock pump with a special air valve connector (not supplied with this bike), this will help stop air from escaping while removing the pump from the shock valve. Please note that air will flow into the hose and indicator when counterchecking the air pressure, this will give the appearance that the shock has less air pressure than it was setup, your shock may need to be adjusted once this action is made. Please also note that the indicators of shock pumps have a tolerance of max. 10%. SAG Your SCOTT bike will be supplied with a SAG tool to help set up your bikes suspension, these SAG tools can be easily clipped on the fork body and Fork dust seal. For the best performance it is recommended you start with SAG of 15-20% for forks. 1. Make sure before any adjustment is made that your forks are in the open position. 2. With the fork pump attached to the fork valve, pump your desired pressure into the fork. Once the pressure is achieved slowly compress and decompress your fork through 25% of its travel 10 times. This will equalize the positive and negative air chambers and will change the pressure on the pump gauge, if needed add or reduce pressure and repeat. Note the compression/decompression of the fork through the travel must also be done if the pressure is reduced! 3. Once your desired pressure is reached slide the rubber O-ring on the fork leg against the dust seal, clip on your SAG tool if required. 4. Sit on your bike in your usual riding position (in your riding gear: if you carry a bag/ Hydration-system put it on,) don t bounce the suspension while doing this, use a wall or a friend for support if needed. 5. Get off the bike gently without bouncing and check the O-ring position on the fork stanchion, with the SAG adjuster clipped on. This makes it easy to see where your SAG is set. Example below. For bikes spec d with Fox forks: You can find more specific information about Fox set up on Fox s website, please use your fork ID number to find more useful setup tips for your exact fork (visit: ridefox.com) IMPORTANT! Do not sit on your bike with the shock pump attached to the bike! 08 09
REBOUND FORK SET-UP Rebound describes the speed the fork returns back to its original length after absorbing an obstacle, setting of this is very important for the handling and correct function of the bike. The rebound adjustment dial location may vary form fork to fork please consult the manual that came with this bike. If your dropout needs to be replaced, we recommend this work should be carried out by your local SCOTT dealer as the rear derailleur may need adjustment, failure to adjust this correctly may result in accident or damage to your bike. IMPORTANT! We recommend all work should be carried out by your authorised SCOTT dealer! If you wish to change this item yourself, please ensure the bike is supported correctly to prevent damage by referring to the general manual instructions supplied with your bike. After the fork pressure/sag is correctly set ride your bike in a safe area with your riding gear/backpack, etc. While remaining in the saddle, ride you bike off a drop/kerb of about 10-15 cm. * Fox rebound adjuster shown If it bounces 1-2 times and settles the set-up is good. If it bounces more than 3 times the rebound is too fast, turn the knob 1-2 clicks clockwise and repeat. If there is no bounce the rebound is too slow, turn the knob 1-2 click counter clockwise and repeat. Repeat these steps until the desired result is achieved. Your SCOTT Scale bike was designed to be used in conjunction with a specific forks, changing the forks on your bike may cause poor/unsafe riding characteristics or damage to frame and components, please consult your SCOTT dealer for any assistance you need, failure to do this may affect your warranty This is the basic principle on setting your forks up, please always consult the fork owner's manual for full instructions to familiarize yourself with the product. Before installing the new hanger first make sure the area is clean; insert the hanger. Insert the end cap through the frame and into the hanger. REPLACEABLE REAR DROPOUT On SCOTT Scale models for 2017 the rear derailleur hanger is replaceable, this hanger is available in two options depending on if your bike is equipped with a standard or direct mount rear derailleur. FOR CARBON SCOTT SCALE 3 FRAMES ONLY: Make sure the location arrow is pointing to the lower bolt hole; insert the bolt (Max torque 1.5 N/M) Insert the second bolt in the rear of the dropout (Max torque 1.5 N/M) Once the bike is reassembled please insure the wheels are refitted correctly and the gears are set correctly including the over shift stops, please consult your authorized SCOTT dealer for assistance.

CABLE GUIDES AND CABLING. On the carbon SCOTT Scale the cable guides on the headtube can be changed if required so different cable configurations can be used, the inside of the cable guide is stamped with a number or numbers, these numbers dictate what cables can be used, these are the same for left and right. The numbers indicate what cables fit the guide; the guide shown will hold 2 mechanical cables and one hydraulic. They are available in the following combinations and are available from your SCOTT dealer. BB STANDARDS/FD MOUNTING DETAILS The SCOTT Scale has a Press fit PF92 bottom bracket with an inner diameter of 41mm, this is a press fit system and special tools are required for removal and refitting, please contact your SCOTT dealer for assistance. The SCOTT Scale (non RC models) uses a high direct mount side swing front derailleur only, this must be used with the use of an FD adaptor plate. 4 = mechanical cable 5 = hydraulic cables DI2 = DI2 Blank= no cable Combinations: 4, 4-5-5, 5, 4-4-5, 4-4, DI2, 4-5, 4-DI2, 5-5, 5-DI2, 4-5-DI2 It is not possible to mount a front derailleur to RC frames/bikes. These cable guides are fitted with a single bolt, the fixing torque of this must not exceed 0.75-1 N/M. With the many different cabling options it is possible to customise the cable routing slightly depending what components you wish to run, it is recommended that handlebar cables that come from the right hand side enter the frame on the left, and handlebar cables that come from the left hand side enter the frame on the right, while this is not crucial to the performance of the bike it may help to prevent any cable rub Below is an example of a bike set up European style with a 1X set up and a dropper seatpost. Please note that below is an example and that your bikes brakes need to be set up as per the law in your country, please check with your local SCOTT dealer for this information. ADJUSTMENT We recommend all adjustments are carried out by your local authorized SCOTT dealer but basic maintenance and checks should be done regularly before each ride as described in the general manual that was supplied with your bike. Please pay attention to all instructions and torque settings, if you have any doubts please contact your dealer, *in addition to the torque settings please note all bikes with a dropper type seatpost have a seatpost clamp maximum torque of 5 N/M. 12 13
SCOTT SCALE 2 SCALE CONCEPT Scale is the result of research and development based on the feedback from the SCOTT- ODLO Racing Team searching for one of the lightest cross country racing frames in the market.
